Premier's Letter

Greetings to our visitors. Nothing better illustrates a journey through paradise for new and returning visitors than a taste of "Nature's Little Secret," the Virgin Islands.

This great publication introduces you to a variety of memorable experiences with an enviable combination of pleasurable activities, unforgettable sightseeing adventures and many restaurants that serve the best of local cuisine and specialities prepared by award-winning chefs.

As one of the jewels of the Caribbean known for the best sailing waters in the world, we are so glad you have chosen to explore our chain of islands. I encourage you to take some time to sail our signature waters to our sister islands of Norman Island, Cooper Island, Peter Island, Virgin Gorda, Anegada, Jost Van Dyke and so many more.

You will experience the diversity and similarity that each island brings, and you will taste the uniqueness that makes each island so spectacular for repeat visits to the BVI. Our tourism product also has diverse recreational activities, including a day at The Baths, the dive sites, the mountain hikes and watersports. Whether you are a land- or sea-based adventurer, there is an activity for you.

The Government and the people of the Virgin Islands deeply appreciate your confidence in our destination. Like many countries around the world, we continue to be threatened by the global economic downturn and we appreciate your decision to spend time with us. We continue to create initiatives to broaden the tourism experience and ensure that you, our visitors, experience the BVI at its best.

We look forward to making your stay extraordinary, unparalleled, exquisite, significant, luxurious, rewarding and memorable so that you will want to return to our paradise again and again.

Sincerely,

Ralph T. O'Neal, OBE
Premier and Minister of Finance and Tourism

Greetings,

On behalf of the BVI Chamber of Commerce and Hotel Association (BVICCHA), I extend an enthusiastic welcome to you on your visit to the British Virgin Islands, where you are sure to find tranquillity, serenity, cultural enrichment and inspiration.

Thank you for making the BVI your destination of choice. Whether you are visiting for business or leisure, the unmatched, unique personal experience is bound to leave lasting memorable moments that will undoubtedly lure you to return. Our pristine historic sites, treasured museum artefacts, original arts and crafts, architectural landscape, delectable Virgin Islands cuisine and a myriad of accommodation choices — resorts, hotels, villas and guest houses — are all designed to make your land adventure most impressionable.

Not to mention our water-based resources, which are amongst the best in the world for sailing, diving, and snorkelling. Together, they provide a rare opportunity to live in harmony with nature in its unfathomable beauty, if only momentarily.

As the primary organisation representing the hospitality industry and commerce, the BVICCHA is committed to ensuring the sustainability of our fragile and pristine resources so that our visitors can return again and again to the fountain of renewal.

I trust that you will use this opportunity to connect with and enjoy the miracle of life that surrounds us in all its splendour and will be imbued with the irresistible urge to spread the word to others and return time and again to the place we call paradise.

Enjoy the adventure!

Best,
